United Kingdom Church of England Full time

We are looking for a creative and energetic parish priest with a passion for Jesus and a love for people to help us explore, shape, agree and enable mission and ministry to flourish across our parish
The parishincludes the huge housing estate of Holmewood with serious levels of multiple deprivation, a small church set in Laisterdyke, one of the most deprived areas in England, and the small and delightful village community of Tong with a historic listed church building. Ministry in this parish has happily married a holistic, practical and effective love for people in their context with a clear Christian commitment to help people come to personal faith in Christ. The post holder will need to continue to hold these aspects together as people are helped to come to faith. Alongside the experienced Vicar, this is a good moment to join in the development of new ways of proclaiming the Kingdom of God, building on the best of the former praxis and also identifying new ways forward.
This is a fascinating challenge for someone with a heart for mission and a passion to stand alongside the very poor and work with them to address both the causes and consequences of poverty, as well as helping the more affluent to value and engage in their communities and grow in faith. This missional appointment requires whole-hearted immersion in the life of the local churches.
This is an Interim post, initially for a three year period.
The person appointed will take forward two particular specific interim objectives:
Grow contextually appropriate worshipping communities / fresh expressions of faith in the urban priority areas of Laisterdyke and Tyersal, building relationships with contacts developed through the church’s community ministries as well as other organisations in the parish, exploring the good news of Jesus Christ with them to help them and others embrace the fullness of life available in Him.
Have specific responsibility for the church of St James Tong, supporting and nurturing the community and being part of the St James Restoration Team, and particularly to explore how mission and ministry can best flourish in Tong, including possible partnership with the neighbouring Benefice of Drighlington and Gildersome.
(Facilitate with the Vicar of Tong and Laisterdyke and other leaders the identification of God’s vision and new initiatives for ministry and mission in Tong and Laisterdyke, building upon the experience and achievements so far;
Share in the worshipping life of the congregations across the Parish, usually leading 2 Sunday congregations each Sunday and sharing in the leadership of the missional congregations throughout the month.
A proven track record of commitment to and delivery of church growth particularly through relational mission and utilising a range of links with the community.
A track record of creative, out of the box, solution focussed thinking that is delivered ways that empower people
Our vision as the Diocese is about confident clergy equipping confident Christians to live and tell the good news of Jesus Christ. The Diocesan Vision is ‘confident Christians, growing churches, transforming communities and so helping share the Good News of Jesus Christ across our Diocese’. The Diocese is a mix of urban and rural. the large industrial and post-industrial towns of Halifax, Huddersfield and Dewsbury; and the deeply rural area of the Yorkshire Dales. More information can be found on the Diocesan Website
The Deans of the Cathedrals work together to provide key diocesan services.
